Risk Assessment

Each individual tour leader is responsible for carrying out a full risk assessment for their specific tour however the Galloway Generic Risk Assessment can form the basis of the assessment required.This generic risk assessment is designed to assist the tour leader with this task but should not be relied upon exclusively. Galloway cannot carry out the full risk assessment on behalf of a Group Leader but may be able to offer further advice and information.

This risk assessment process has been broken down into the following headings:

Hazards (action & locations)

Persons affected

Control measures employed

Residual risk rating

The Group Leader’s own full Risk Assessment should include:

GROUP SPECIFIC RISK ASSESSMENT - this should take into account factors such as the ages, number and ability level of group participants.

SITE SPECIFIC RISK ASSESSMENT - which considers the environment, geography and climate of the destination of the tour and any additional visits, which may have associated risks (separate risk assessments may be necessary).

DYNAMIC RISK ASSESSMENT - takes into account possible changing circumstances such as a revised itinerary, inclement weather or an incident

Once a booking is confirmed with Galloway, Group Leaders will be able to download a full copy of the risk assessement along with further supplementary information.
